The Cox Business Services Convention Center is a large multipurpose convention and meeting facility located in downtown Oklahoma City, USA. It is also known as the Cox Convention Center, the COX, and formerly the Myriad Convention Center (or simply, The Myriad)
It is located adjacent to the Renaissance and Sheraton Hotels and borders Robinson Avenue, Sheridan Avenue, Reno Avenue, and EK Gaylord Blvd in Downtown. Immediately across the street to the south is the Ford Center, the city's largest multipurpose arena, as well as the Courtyard Hotel.
The complex houses multiple meeting rooms, conference and convention space, dining halls, and a 15,000 seat multi-purpose arena (one of the city's three major arenas).
The Cox Convention Center's primary use is that of large scale convention and meeting facility. It hosts major concerts, conferences, and other large scale events.
It is the secondary home to the Oklahoma City Blazers and the Oklahoma City Yard Dawgs professional sports teams when the Ford Center is not available. The Cox has also hosted numerous state and college basketball events, including the 2007 Big 12 Women's Basketball Tournament.
The venue's name comes from a naming rights deal with local telecommunications giant COX Communications.
